    Gesturing , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 32min
    A selection from the John Updike audio collection.These extraordinarily evocative stories depict the generation born in a small-town America during the Depression and growing up in a world where the old sexual morality was turned around and material comforts were easily had. Yet, as these stories reflect so accurately, life was still unsettling, and Updike chronicles telling moments both joyful and painful. The texts are taken from his recent omnibus, The Early Stories, 1953-1975.In describing how he wrote these stories in a small, rented, smoke-filled office in Ipswitch, Massachusetts, he says, "I felt that I was packaging something as delicately pervasive as smoke, one box after another, in that room, where my only duty was to describe reality as it had come to me -- to give the mundane its beautiful due." ungekürzt.

    Neuroscience of Religious Experience (eBook, ePUB)
    Technical advances in the life and medical sciences have revolutionised our understanding of the brain, while the emerging disciplines of social, cognitive, and affective neuroscience continue to reveal the connections of the higher cognitive functions and emotional states associated with religious experience to underlying brain states. At the same time, a host of developing theories in psychology and anthropology posit evolutionary explanations for the ubiquity and persistence of religious beliefs and the reports of religious experiences across human cultures, while gesturing toward physical bases for these behaviours. What is missing from this literature is a strong voice speaking to these behavioural and social scientists - as well as to the intellectually curious in the religious studies community - from the perspective of a brain scientist.

    Revolutionary Collective (eBook, ePUB)
    This book surveys revolutionary socialist ideas and engages a gallery of contentious political thinkers, offering an indispensable assessment of the place of revolutionary collectives in this radical tradition.Beginning with a broad and informative survey of scholarship on V.I. Lenin and "Leninism," Le Blanc goes on to explore the multifaceted "collective" qualities of the Russian Bolshevik organization. He then turns his attention to several of its central figures as well as a rich variety of activist-intellectuals who in one way or another continued to engage with Lenin's perspectives after his death, including Leon Trotsky, Alexander Bogdanov, Georg Lukács, Antonio Gramsci, Rosa Luxemburg, Karl Korsch, and Daniel Bensaïd.The volume concludes by considering related questions which have more recently posed problems within left-wing organizations, gesturing toward the dynamics and needs of future struggles.

    How the Body Knows Its Mind: The Surprising Power of the Physical Environment to Influence How You Think and Feel , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 398min
    An award-winning scientist offers a groundbreaking new understanding of the mind-body connection and its profound impact on everything from advertising to romance. The human body is not just a passive device carrying out messages sent by the brain but rather an integral part of how we think and make decisions. In her groundbreaking new book, Sian Beilock, author of the highly acclaimed Choke, which Time magazine praised for its "smart tips...in order to think clearly...and be cool under pressure," draws on her own cutting-edge research to turn the conventional understanding of the mind upside down in ways that will revolutionize how we live our lives. At the heart of How the Body Knows Its Mind is the tantalizing idea that our bodies "hack" our brains. The way we move affects our thoughts, our decisions, and even our preferences for particular products. Called "embodied cognition", this new science - of which Beilock is a foremost researcher - illuminates the power of the body and its physical surroundings to shape how we think, feel, and behave. Beilock's findings are as varied as they are surprising. For example, pacing around the room can enhance creativity; gesturing during a speech can help ensure that you don't draw a blank; kids learn better when their bodies are part of the learning process; walking in nature boosts concentration skills; Botox users experience less depression; and much more. From the tricks used by advertisers to the ways body language can improve your memory, Beilock explains a wealth of fascinating interconnections between mind and body and how mastering them can make us happier, safer, and more successful. ungekürzt.

    The Werewolf Detective 3 , Hörbuch, Digital, ungekürzt, 66min
    Book 3 of this thrilling hot werewolf romance! Audrey pointed to the floor where the paper was still laying. "I haven't touched it since." The envelope was still perched on the arm of the chair. "We called it in, so the others should be here soon." Liam and Audrey stood in awkward silence as they waited. Hank looked around their little house, again envious. Why was he suddenly so concerned about what his friend had? He knew he was because it contrasted so starkly against what he didn't have. It didn't take long for two squad cars to arrive and two of the CSI's. Although why they were here, Liam had no idea. All that was there was a letter and an envelope. He could have bagged that himself. He turned his head sharply as Audrey's cell phone rang. "Hello?" There was a pause and Liam watched the back of Audrey's head nod as she plugged her other ear. "No, now's not a good time..." Liam took a step towards her. "Something...happened. I can't talk about it." Liam took the phone from Audrey's hand. "Who in the hell is this?" Audrey stared at Liam with indignation. She grabbed for the phone, but Liam raised his elbow to fend her off. "Give that back to me!" She hissed. Hank looked at the other three officers, (why three!), and shrugged. The two Crime Scene Investigators waited patiently, holding their equipment, obviously enjoying the show. Heated words were flying out of Liam's mouth. "Oh, yeah? Well, come over so we can discuss it!" Audrey, Hank, and everyone else there listened in shocked silence as Liam gave the home address. He tossed the phone back into Audrey's hands. "Why did you do that?" She demanded, one hand on her hip the other gesturing towards him with the phone still in her hand. Liam stepped towards her and jabbed the air ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Troy Otte. Audio sample: https://samples.audible.de/bk/acx0/050615/bk_acx0_050615_sample.mp3.

    Theatre and the Virtual (eBook, PDF)
    Theatre and the Virtual lays out a set of conceptual instruments for the articulation and engendering of the forces of theatrical potentiality. Creating a passage toward a reconstitution of the given, a theatre of the virtual opens bodies in motion to a region of an ongoing genesis of forces. The outcome: regimes of constraint are abandoned through a radical practice of ecological attunement. Violence is eschewed through an onto-ecology of touch. Closed systems are repotentialised to become co-constitutive of their environments. A logic of spectrality settles in-not so much entities as atmospheres, not so much a being as a style of being, not so much a body as multitudinous milieus of response. This is the task of a theatre of the virtual-to safeguard the possibility of the extra-epistemological and uphold one's right to offer accounts of oneself from outside of being, all the while creating a fractured record of the wondrous mutations of a moving, gesturing body. This book will be of great interest to students and scholars in theatre, philosophy, new materialisms, environmental humanities, gesture, and the ontology of response.
